Writing is no cakewalk, that’s for sure. But sometimes you have to wonder why some writers just won’t quit. Here are 24 headlines that never should have made it to the paper.
How many fictional elements or minerals can you name? Surely, Adamantium? Kryptonite? Have you forgotten about Flubber and Vibranium?
The same is true here and upon closer inspection, it turns out it would suck pretty hard to date the Wendy's girl, for several reasons:

"This Hollywood tradition / inside joke of purposefully using the scream in a variety of films began with sound effects designer Ben Burtt (Star Wars, Indiana Jones) who noticed a particular scream being used in a number of Warner Brother’s films: Them in 1954, Helen of Troy in 1956, The Green Berets in 1968, etc. From then on, Burtt began slipping the Wilhelm Scream into every movie he worked on, beginning with George Lucas’s Star Wars: A New Hope.

Martin’s A Song Of Ice And Fire fantasy novels would not be on."
"Imagine a realm where the most horrifying terrors of the underworld emerge to wreak bloody vengeance upon any who... hmm? what's that? you wanna go literally anywhere else? yeah, good idea let's get out of here"

These might not be parenting-book-sanctioned tips, but sometimes when raising kids you have to think outside the box.
